The Good Lord Knows I Tried Billy Joe Shaver
Verse 1:
From the v[D]ery first hello to the v[G]ery last goodbye
From h[A]ere to there and everything betw[D]een
All i ever did was try my best to k[G]eep you satisfied
And all you [A]ever did was make a fool of m[D]e
Chorus:
I tried [A]every way i knew to give you e[D]verything i had
And all i [E]ever did was try to treat you r[A]ight
Still the b[D]est that i could do was never g[G]ood enough for you
I couldn't pl[A]ease you but the good Lord knows i tr[D]ied
Verse 2:
[D] My old friends they tried to warn me but i p[G]aid them all no mind
When i s[A]ee them now we don't have much to s[D]ay
For you took everything we had,left me n[G]othing but behind
Feelin' l[A]ike some old forgotten yesterd[D]ay
